Comment on What if mass storage were free? (1980)

Comments

We now (2023) live in a time where storing years of text and even audio is essentially free. Storing years of video is still actually costly.

Btw: You need about 12 TB for a 1 year video stream at 3 Mbit/s, so it's certainly doable, but it's not cheap.

I'm still thinking of recording a 30 year video stream of my backyard just for the sake of it. :)
